COSTA MESA, Calif.—Planning commissioners approved a conditional use permit April 11 for a local attorney to open and operate a new cannabis delivery service.
The permit is only one of several hurdles Winter Greens needs to begin operations within the city’s designated “Green Zone,” a district that allows the manufacturing and distribution of cannabis.
The company, which already operates in Truckee, Calif., near Lake Tahoe, still needs a state license and a city business license before opening.
If all are granted, Winter Greens would not be a retail store. Instead, about 10 drivers would deliver cannabis products—such as cannabis flower, pre-rolls, edibles, concentrates, topicals, and more—to customers in the region.
